Yakuza 2 Will Feature The Japanese Language [Sega]

<p><img src="http://kotaku.com/assets/images/kotaku/2008/06/yakuza_2_osaka.jpg" class="postimg center" style="display:block;display:block;"/>Phew! Sure seems like Sega listens to fans. After the first <i>Yakuza</i> game was released with an English language dub, erasing the brilliant original Japanese one, people complained. Why not, you know, release the game with subtitles? It is called <i>Yakuza</i> and English dubbing, no matter how good, kills the mood! Well, that is, unless you're one of those can't-see-foreign-movies-with-subtitles people. For the PS2 sequel, Sega points out on the game's official site:</p> <blockquote> <p>Authentic, cinematic sequel. The gritty, genuine portrayal of life in the Yakuza is made more realistic throughout 16 gripping chapters with a return to the original Japanese voice cast and English subtitles.</p> </blockquote> <p>Bravo, Sega, bravo. The game does a neat job of authentically capturing Osaka's nightlife (above) &mdash; though needs more people. Still, it's a PS2 game and quite a nice looking one at that!</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.sega.com/games/?g=417">Games Yakuza 2</a> [SEGA via <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.seganerds.com/2008/06/17/yakuza-2-to-have-japanese-audio-with-english-subtitles/">Sega Nerds</a>]</p> <br style="clear:both;"/> <img alt="" style="border:0;height:1px;width:1px;" border="0" src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?i=45d77b35ca505c7beda4d4be8438081b" height="1" width="1"/>
